If the birth rate is falling and the death rate is already low, what may happen to the growth rate in the long run?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: The growth rate may decline

Answer: A is correct. Natural increase is broadly related to the difference between the birth rate and the death rate. If the death rate is already low and the birth rate keeps falling, the gap between births and deaths becomes smaller. As a result, the rate of natural population increase may decline over time. The word “may” is important because migration and other conditions can also influence total growth. A is correct because it describes a reasonable long-term tendency. B is wrong because a falling birth rate does not support an always rapidly rising growth rate. C is wrong because a lower growth rate does not mean instant disappearance. D is wrong because migration keeps its meaning: movement of people from one place to another. Memory cue: lower births minus low deaths usually means slower natural increase.
